Words are powerful. They build and destroy, heal and hurt. Words can transform.
Hear what God says through Isaiah (43) to those that belong to him:
I have ransomed you.
I have called you by name.
You are mine.
I will be with you.
You are precious to me.
You are honored.
I love you.
For those who are in Christ, every last syllable is true.
For those who are in Christ and live believing what God said through Isaiah, transformation is occurring.
